I am afraid I have given up on using Bluetooth to tranfer my calendar. In part the problem is the phones themselves.

I purchased a new Nokia 5800 - nice phone - and set up Bluetooth - worked fine for a while (1 Day) and then started to get the same behaviour with the 6233. Half the time I had to connect force a FROM the phone to the PC, described above.

Worked in this mode on and off for 4 days then it stopped, no sdptool browse response. So restarted the phone, could not transfer the calendar but sdptool browse <id> worked.

I then checked the output from sdptool browse <id> and noticed that the SyncMLClient channel had changed from 6 to 5 !!!

So I changed my settings to 5 in the Multisync tool, all good calender transfer worked

Next evening transfer failed. So I checked the channel again - and it had reset back to 6!

SO I have come to the conclusion that this must be a giant Nokia / Phone manufacturer conspiracy, cause I cannot take it any more.

Going to use GooSync (as we have a corporate Gmail account).

I have to sync Evo with Gmail via GCALDaemon, then I use GooSync - a pain - two steps when a cron should do it, and used to.

Good luck
